This application, and I mean all of the versions starting with 9.0, doesn't work. Period. Messaging feature really does secure your email because you often can't send an email. Now with this version, they have even taken away the ability to choose weather or not to encrypt or sign messages using a simple button in Mail.app by removing the Mail plug-in completely. They need to pay me for struggling with this garbage.

Over priced. No support.

DON'T USE THIS. Get GPG for free.

The worst application I have seen in over 10 years - toxdoc

I have to use this because I have to submit data for a research project and it requires PGP encryption. I tried GPGMail and it caused problems with my IMAP e-mail account.

It is definitely not a great application, but it works for what I need it to do which is encrypt files and send them. As for comments about their support, the experience I had was that their support guy was willing to spend ages with me on the phone trying to help. Unfortunately the problem didn't get resolved, but there was no lack of will on the part of the tech support personnel.
